A decent renewal even if 2017 winner Definitely Red and Saint Xavier take up their first preference at Kelso. In that event we still have a competitive event with recent Wincanton scorer Worthy Farm a leading prospect along with Boldmere as long as that one has recovered from his crashing last time out fall. Last year’s winner Chidswell has to be respected although this looks a deeper contest this year. Fortified Bay wouldn’t be out of this if it turns into a real slog but the vote goes to YALLTARI. On the face of it his return at Ascot was disappointing but he showed up well for a long way on what appeared the worst part of the track and still resides on a good mark.
